quote name='545felix' post='789265' date='Feb 10 2009, 07:21 AM']that is all one piece, held by the two screws at the top and many, many clips around the edges.[/quote]
thanks Felix. got it all out and new one in.. now the problem I am facing is that on my old center console piece, the menu button sits flush because it is all in one solid plastic piece, now on the wood one the center console didn't have a bracket that goes on the Menu hole, that holds in place the new Menu button.. since my old titanium was all made in one solid piece didnt come that bracket now I am having a hard time to get the bracket because I don't think they sell the bracket alone you need to get the full console

if the button clicks into place I wouldn't worry about it, there are suble differences between the wood and the metal trim pieces.
